LEGEND OF TWO SACKS.

The Three Travellers, and How They Car
ried Their Good and bad Deeds-Ths
One Who Had Nothing to Drag Hin
Backwards.
There is an ancient legend that tells oil
an old man who was in the habit Of travel
Ing from place to place, with a sack hang
ing behind him and another in front OF
him.
What do YOU think these sacks were for
Well, I will tell you.
In the one behind him he tossed all the
kind deeds Of his friends, where they wer.
quite hid from view; and he soon forgo
all about them.
In the one hanging round his neck under
his chin he popped all the sins which he
knew the people committed; and these ht
was in the habit of turning over and look.
ing at as he walked along, day by day.
One day, to his surprise, he met a mar
wearing, just like himself, sack in front
and one behind. He went up to him and
began feeling his sack.
What have you got here, my friendr'
he asked, giving the sack in front good
poke.
"Stopi don't do thatp' cried the other;
''you'll spoil my good things"
'What thingsp asked number one.
"Why. my good Deeds" answered num-
Der two. II keep them all in front OF me,
where l can always see them. See,
here is the half-crown l put in the plate
last Sunday; and the shawl l gave to the
beggargirl; and the mittens gave to the
crippled boy; and the penny l gave to the
organ grinder; and here is even the ben.
evolent smile / bestowed ON the crossing.
sweeper at my door; and"--
And what's in the sack behind youl'i
asked the first traveller, who thought his
companions good deeds would never come
to an end.
"Tut, tut" said number two, "there is
nothing care to look at in therei That
sack holds what call my little mistakes "
ut seems to me that your sack of mis-
takes is fuller than the other" said num-
Der one
Number two frowned. He had never
thought that, though he had put what he
called his mistakes" out of his sight
every one else could see them still An
angry reply was on his lips, when, hap
PLY, third traveler-also carrying two
sacks, as they were-overtook them.
The first two men at once pounced ON
the stranger.
What cargo do you carry in your sackp
cried one.
lJCb . oCO yOuE SUOuo, odiu OGucT.
"Wth all my heart" quoth the stranger;
'for / have goodly assortment, and like
to show them. This sack" sand he, point
ing to the one hanging in front of him, al.
full OF the good deeds of others"
"Your sack looks nearly touching the
ground. 1t must be pretty heavy weigh
to carry, observed number one.
There you are mistaken" replied the
stranger; 1.-THE weight is only such as sail,
are to ship, or wings to an eagle. II
helps me onward"
well, your sack behind can be of littl,
good TO you" said number two, "for it ap
pears to be empty; and see it has grea
no Q in the bottom Of it."
II did it on purpose" said the stranger
'for all the evil hear Of people put II
there, and it falls through. and is lost
So you see have no weight to drag me
down backwards. "-Baptist Weekly.

In, and Down, in Wall Street.

An old gentleman whom a New York
Ledger writer met recently, in four years
paid one firm in Wall street the sum OF
$50 900 in commissions. He was wealthy
man when he went into the street, with a
laudable but unwarranta table desire to in
crease his patrimony by specializing in
stocks. Now, so heavy have been his
losses that he would be satisfied if he pos.
sessed the sum he has paid out in COM
missions. AS it is, he will cheerfully ac'
cept a clerkship in the same firm. Ii he
had been contented with handsome suf-
fciency for the day, amounting really to a
superabundance, he would now be in
affluence instead of comparative destitu-
ton. On the other hand, young clerk
who, few years ago, commenced to spec
uIate in the street with 800, the savings
Of years abstinence from smoking, is
worth in real estate over $1,000, 900, and
several more in securities. In Wall street
speculation what is game for one man is
luin for another.

" s6ys Z Washington correspondent OF
the San Francisco Chroniels: Strange as
It sounds, one may ask q dozen people In
Wash in gtou, anyhow, where Mrs Surratt
was buried aud be told they "have real
ly forgotten" or "never knew" Vague
reports have fitted through the press AT
tins that her remains were lying id the
/ Potter's Field, or that they were given to
o medical college. Not half the psople in
Washington know what disposition was
/ nade Of them When the old arsenal
! grounds Tets rsmGdelNd ard the bodies
taken away. Finding that the bodies OF
! Wirz and Mrs. Surratt were inferred in
Mount Oivet your correspondent went
| out to this beautiful homo OF the
dead and visited the noted graves,
about which there has been so much wild
speculation The sexton met the inquiry
for the grave OF Mrs Surratt with q very
significant smile, that he explained as
follows; 1.-THE curiosity to see her grave
would have kept guide busy all the time
for the first few years after she was
buried H6re,s said he I'VE could not
spend time to show people the grave, so
we used TO direct them as well as we
could aud let them find it for themselves.
There Is one curious thing, though. NO
one who has said any thing about 1t in
print has ever been able to tell the truth"
Taking the main road, the lot containing
the remains of Mrs. Surratt was reached,
lying near and facing the extreme east
ern boundary of the cemetery. 1t is
the very last row of lots on that side
Of the grounds. The lot was donated
by friend, and is a large, well laid
out lot, containing tho one neglected
grave. Sonte time ago a man was erect
ing monument on his lot, and an old dis.
carded stone that was taken down he
wondered what he should do with. Final
lv an idea occurred TO him to donate it to
Mrs. Surratt." 1t was accordingly set up
at her grave as a headstone, the original
name was cut Of aud MRS, Surratt' in.
scribed plainly across it, 1t is an old,
plain marble slab, about four feet high,
and stands in leading position. The
grave Of the keeper of Andersonville is
single grave in lot nearer to the main
entrance. The man who buried him is
still EN- 2loyed at the cemetery. and as he
identified the grave he kicked one foot
against SUI Ill block Of stone.

General Zach Tayior's Turkey.

General Taylor said one day, soon after
his inauguration as President, that he had
never enjoyed a turkey so much as he had
at New Orleans Oh mis- way home from his
Mexican campaign. 1t was placed before
him on tho dinner table at the st. Charles
Hotel, and it was not until he had been re-
Quested to carve it that he ascertained that
1t was of papiermache. Whom opened it
was found to contain, not stuffing, but a
pair of Major-Genoraps gold epaulettes
and silk sash, present from the artil-
cry battalion. "That," said the General
"w.was turkey worth having"

THE X. OF l..
And Other Organizations Ccle-
brate the Fourth of July.

The celebration of the Fourth of
July by the labor organizations of
Dallas was very successful.
AT $3.50 about 1000 people fell into
line on the corner Of Main and Syca-
more streets, and marched as hereto
fore indicated until they reached the
Union depot where they broke ranks
and boarded the train for the fair
grounds.
The exercises at the grounds were
entertaining, and the attendance out
side of the organization was quite
large.
Reuben Gray was marshal and Of
iicer of the day.
Thousands Of people witnessed the
procession as it marched through the
city. There was no bad manage
ment,-no trouble, no accidents. but
everything went off quietly and pleas
antly. Col. w. L. Crawford made a
happy speech to the boys which was
well received. Gustave Cook did not
speak bnt Instead there was a circular
distributed which referred the boys 10
Gustave's position on the working
mems question in 1886. w. E. Far
mer, cne of the leading Knights
of Labor in the state,
delivered an interesting address
which was applauded TO the echo.
Rev. NJ. Petty and Prof. Harllee,
colored, also spoke. The colored
citizens were lal gely represented, 10th
in the procession and at the grounds
Roland a. Hughes delivered short,
decisive and energetic speech.
The game of base ball played be-
tween the Sanger and Eclipse mines
was one of the best and closest con-
tested games yet played in Dallas this
season. 1t took ten innings to settle
the contest, which resulted II to 3 in
favor of the Sangers.
The bicycle race was interesting
The one mile heat was won by Hugh
Blakely and the / dash by Jack Buell.
The labor organizations of Dallas
can well congratulate themselves upon
their highly commendable celebration
There was perfect order; and nothing
occurred to mar anybody's pleasure
If Mr.. Powdcrly wishes to establish
the fact that the Knights Of Labor are
patriotic American citizens and not
anarchists, he could not have so Of
fectualy demonstrated it so satisiac-
tory in auy other way than the order
throughout the country celebrating
the natal day of America.
